    Does anyone have any examples of using this in the wild?

    I have fond memories of IRC channels full of all sorts of bots; the Matrix and XMPP rooms I've seen don't seem to have nearly as many fun automations.

      I assume something of this nature will be wired up for LLM Claws.

      Stick the claws into some IRC like channel, but they only have to talk HTTP, so there is less backend work required for the integration.

    This is fantastic. Easier automated notifications to my XMPP account.

    The world was a better place with Jabber/xmpp where we could setup our messaging system and don't rely on closed systems like we do today as Whatsapp, Telegram, iMessage, etc. iirc Google deprecated support for it in Google voice long time ago which marked its declined

    > We are installing Prosody IM, the community modules and certbot (to get certificates).

    My understanding is that certbot is part of letsencrypt which is going to eventually make it so you cannot use XMPP certs or did I misunderstand this?

      The blog post you are referencing explains the changes the XMPP community has to do to keep up with what Lets encrypt did. TLDR: People just need to upgrade their servers.
